Renting a home in Portugal can be surprisingly challenging. In high-demand cities, competition for good apartments is intense. In rural or less-known areas, many properties aren’t listed on traditional platforms, making them hard to find without local knowledge.

Without careful attention, renters risk falling into scams, signing contracts that don’t meet visa or legal standards, or facing delays that disrupt their plans.In this session, we’ll be joined by experts Casa Portuguesa, a company that specialises in helping foreigners find properties (rent & buy) across Portugal — from identifying reliable listings to reviewing contracts and inspecting properties on behalf of clients.

With extensive on-the-ground experience, they’ll share practical insights into how the process really works.Topics will include:

• Navigating competitive markets and limited rental options
• Understanding legal, visa, and contract requirements
• Spotting red flags in listings, agents, and agreements
• Rent guarantees, fiadors, and large upfront payments
• Avoiding overpriced rentals and pressure to sign too fast
• Misunderstandings and language gaps with landlords and agents
• Renting with pets
• Knowing your rights during rental and contract termination

The session includes a live Q&A where you can ask rental questions as they arise and get personalised answers from an expert. It’s also a great opportunity to connect with our team and others who are navigating, or have already navigated, the same process.If you’ve already had some rental experience in Portugal, you’re welcome to join and share what you’ve learned — your story might help someone else avoid a costly mistake.By attending live, you’ll benefit from expert insights, real-time discussion, and the supportive community that makes these sessions so valuable.
